I noticed a clip of Richard Dreyfuss yesterday. I always liked his acting no matter what the Movie was. Intense. Bert & Ernie from Sesame Street are Classics to me. I loved the Muppets. When I watched the new Muppet Movie that came out I thought "who are these people?" They ruined most of the Movie in my view. "Ren & Stimpy" seemed to have a lot of different people that didn't always work? The voices everything. Thinking about the eyes here I started thinking about "the Grinch who stole Christmas." The eyes they had. That is really a Classic to me. Thin lines I believe. More about the Story and Characters. Toy dolls don't have heavy black lines. I like narration sometimes. I absolutely love the older felt reindeer Christmas story Movies. "Paddington Bear" is Awesome! I possibly hate "South Park." I think there's a lot of inferior toys today. Toys are so important. I actually did buy "The Simpsons" from Burger King since I thought those were good toys. I wish I still had them. My Aunt had to mail order Cabbage Patch dolls from Indiana for us. That might be the biggest toy phenomena in my life????

I desperately want to be doing a lot more of these than I currently have the time for*, but I’ll do all I can for now, and - if this really is essentially try-outs for your inking crew on 'Cans', John - I will do whatever it takes to MAKE more time to get it done for you (and, in effect, for myself ;)

*Because of this inability to do as much as I’d like, I thought I’d add a little color (which is not my strong suit, so I just dropped some in the background and with the letters; if I attempted to fully color Slab, there, my OCD would take over and I’d be up all night again (and I have to be up at 4:30 for work in the morning(!)...) and silly up my piece a bit: Check it.

ANYway, thanks again for all the great feedback, and here's hoping I'll have the opportunity for plenty more in the future (and can help you out :)
